Me a little while ago: omg I love it when people talk to me about veganism! I wanna educate others and change the world!
Me now, after being vegan for over a year: I don't give a fuck if your ancestors ate meat, stop asking me extremely misinformed nutritional questions, no it's not expensive, I'm sorry your cousin has some rare disorder that prevents them from adopting a vegan diet but that gives zero excuses for you to not go vegan, yes I know food deserts exist and unless you live in one of them then you have no excuse not to be vegan, no veganism isn't only about food, b12 is not made by animals it's made by a fucking microbe that's why you have consume it and it's fortified in most common &affordable vegan foods, yes my blood tests came up normal last time I went to the doctor thank you very much, protein deficiency is absurdly rare and only seen in starving populations and not vegans, no plants are not sentient, yes you are a complete hypocrite for saying you love animals and then eating their bodies and paying for their torture, no you are not an environmentalist if you eat animal products, I don't give a fuck about your uncle that owns a "humane" farm where he cuddles the cows and sings them lullabies every night before their premature murder, now let me eat my lentils in fucking peace
